S-tier show, a memoir of life
March 30, 2025
I love this drama. After being on hiatus from watching drama series, When Life Gives You Tangerines set the stone in developing the strength of what it takes to really amply and tell that slice-of-life melodrama.
This drama is so good, it is well produced. The execution of scenes, the casts, the storytelling, it brought me to life. To really have more appreciation for how my life is no matter how shitty and low life can be. It is true, we need to take care of ourselves. There are instances where we had no choice but to really compromise. I love it. I feel so speechless finishing it now. Binging it for 2 days definitely shows how hooked I was. I could not put it on hold.
I feel that empathy really is highlighted in this show because the way we can see parallels between the generations of people. Life truly is just like that.
The life lessons, the perspectives, the risks, the tragedy, the failure, the happiness, the grief of losing our loved ones, aging, all of these are just so raw. Hence why this show really connected to me and my heart strings were tug a couple times for sure. Afterall, there is no villain in this show, just the course of nature and how life goes...
